This Fourth Edition introduces the latest theory and applications in optimization. It emphasizes constrained optimization, beginning with a substantial treatment of linear programming and then proceeding to convex analysis, network flows, integer programming, quadratic programming, and convex...

Robust optimization is a fairly new approach to optimization problems affected by uncertainty, but it has already proved so useful in real applications that it is difficult to tackle such problems today without considering this powerful methodology. The authors are the principal developers of...

Die im Grundstudium erworbenen mathematischen Kenntnisse reichen im wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Hauptstudium der Betriebs- und Volkswirtschaftslehre mit einer stärkeren quantitativen Ausrichtung bei weitem nicht aus, so z.B. nicht in der Ökonometrie, im Operations Research und insbesondere...
